[AusNOG] Monitoring ULL drops on AAPT MBE connections

[Brad Evans]

**I'm surprised AAPT don't provide such stats for their MBE in Frontier 
in the same way they do for ADSL services (Sync status, speed, snr, 
etc). Once it's available in FrontierLink, then you can easily monitor 
it within your own system.  Perhaps if enough people request the 
feature, they'll add it to their to-do list.
